This coming Sunday marks the end of the liturgical year in the Catholic Church. The last Sunday of the year is dedicated to the Lord, Jesus Christ, the eternal King. You will notice the change from the green vestments of Ordinary time to the white of the feast.
The following Sunday begins the new Church year. The First Sunday of Advent begins the penitential season leading to the great Feast of the Incarnation which we know also as Christmas. The vestment color will be purple (except for one Sunday - do you know which one and what color?).
As Advent approaches, what are your plans to prepare for the Coming of the Lord? Are you preparing a place within your heart for the Infant Jesus?
